with that low of miles, its absolutly fine just to buy one tire.$130 is pretty pricy, but if you want oem, its gonna cost alot.is that from a sube dealer, or a tire shop?i bet sams club would have a cheaper one.

You may want to check out www.tirerack.com I've never ordered from them but have friends say thier the way to go. There is other post on here about Awd and tire wear. I read as long as it's less the a 1/4 inch diffrence you shoud be fine. Good Luck!

FWIW - I had the same situation with my 02' Legacy GT.
It happened few weeks after I got new Yokohamas for it from the Tirerack.
I've used them for few times, and like the service, I use the shop that is recommended by them, they ship to the shop, I supply the car, and it's done.
Of course you want to make sure that the shop is good.
The only disadvantage is that it usually take few days, up to a week to get this done.

On that occasion I had to get a new tire quickly, and to my surprise - Subaru dealer was the only place around having exactly the same tires in stock, I was prepared to get all 4 replaced, but they measured them,turned out within 1/4'', and I got away with only 1 tire replaced. It did cost a bit more (like 10 or 20 bucks), compared to tirerack, but my wife didn't have to drive in snow storm with the donut....
